2020 Clare Classic to feature mountain bikes

The Yaffa Media Cycling Classics will have a MTB presence in 2020 with the Clare Classic set to feature a gravel course.

 

Known as ‘Dirty Clare’ the course is an 80km adventure held on Saturday 4 April. While designated as a gravel ride, mountain bikes are more than welcome.

 

Designed by five-time Tour De France participant Pat Jonker, the course takes you through some of the most challenging terrain in the Clare Valley as well as past the vineyards that make this region so special.
